Winter skin doesn’t stop for any of us. My friends from Hawaii to Canada, from the west coast to the east coast all complain about the toll weather takes on their skin. It may be hot as blazes or cold as an icicle, neither of which prevent chapped lips. That’s why I love to go to Target for all the best that ChapStick® has to offer.

Shopping at Target for my favorite ChapStick® Total Hydration products

ChapStick® Total Hydration

ChapStick® makes it easy because there are several items in the Total Hydration line so whether you only wear lipbalm or only wear lip color there’s something for you. There’s the new and wonderful ChapStick®Total Hydration Conditioning Lip Scrub, there are varieties of ChapStick® Total Hydration Moisture + Tint, and the always popular ChapStick® Total Hydration 100% Natural balms.

ChapStick® Total Hydration Conditioning Lip Scrub

New to me is the ChapStick® Total Hydration Conditioning Lip Scrub which I already purchased again. This small jar is perfect for all my scrub needs. I was sent the first and as soon as I used it I knew that my purse craved one too. It’s small, closes securely and doesn’t spill. The flavor is a refreshing peppermint and it exfoliates and smoothes at the same time. For me there’s no removing it since it has a balm like feeling when applied and moisturizes amazingly. The ingredients are naturally sourced i.e. Sugar Crystals, Maracuja and Coconut Oil, Shea Butter and Vitamin E. I’ve flipped over this.

Another ChapStick® group of Total Hydration that is perfect to have to protect from the elements are ChapStick® Total Hydration 100% Natural. These age-defying lip balms are clear with 100% naturally sourced ingredients like Argan Oil, Omegas 6 & 9 and Avocado Butters.

ChapStick® Total Hydration 100% Natural

There are several flavors in these 100% Natural balms: Vanilla Cream, Honey Blossom, Cooling Peppermint, Fresh Citrus and more. At $2.99 you can have these everywhere without any guilt. Healthier lips never go out of style. With Omegas 6 & 9, Vitamin E, Antioxidant CoQ10 and Madecassoside your lips are in for up to 8 hours of hydration.

And we can’t forget those of us who never go without some color on our lips. For that ChapStick® Total Hydration Moisture + Tint ($4.99) are perfection. These are the very first ChapStick® tinted balms which they are really excited about. They should be since they not only have pretty hints of color but they contain the ingredients that moisturize our lips. They contain rosehip and jojoba oils in an advanced moisturizing formula and avocado butter.

ChapStick® Total Hydration Moisture + Tint

Pick one or all of the three tints depending on your mood – Rose Petal, Coral Blush, and Merlot.

I’m most comfortable wearing Rose Petal as it’s the lightest but the one that has the best fragrance is actually Coral Blush. Merlot has a grape fragrance, Rose Petal has a hint of rose, and Coral Blush smells peachy to me.

I’m sure you’ll soon be at Target since it’s a favorite for Valentine’s Day shopping, everything you can possibly need for you and your family is there! That includes the ChapStick® Total Hydration line. No matter which you choose, you are going to be one happy lady. Plus if your kids are anything like mine they’ll want their own ChapStick®. — Marcia

I’ve mentioned these Covergirl products before but I can’t help it – I’m mentioning them again. That’s because I don’t want you to miss out on them, especially the trunaked palettes that Covergirl has out now. I’m hoping that they are permanent since there are 3 and I “only” have one. As an eyeshadow lover I just can’t help but be attracted to all three of the palettes: Nudes, Roses, and Goldens. I was sent Nudes and I’ve been trying to track down the other two after experiencing the quality of this $12 palette.

Covergirl trunaked – nudes

If you are a neutral eyeshadow lover then you definitely will be interested in Covergirl trunaked Nudes palette . With 8 shades that are a mix of matte, satin, and shimmer the gamut is covered. There isn’t a look you can’t do with this palette; it works day and night; subtle and smokey. I think the texture of the shadows is great. They are soft and blend easily. There is some fallout so they aren’t perfect but using these with an eyeshadow primer they’ll last the day.

1) Buffhas a satin finish and is a slightly shiny brow or lid shade.

2) Shell is a matte that barely shows up on me which is something I need in my collection. It’s great for blending and as a browbone shade.

3) Champagne is a shimmery amber champagne shade that adds some life to your browbone or lid.

4) Fawn is a great matte light brown. It truly feels like silk. It’s a great transition shade plus I’ve used it to tone down the darker shades.

5) Mink is my favorite shade in the palette. It’s a golden taupe that I wear on my lid. This is the type of shade I could wear just about daily without tiring of it.

6) Cocoa is another matte that’s just as it sounds. This isn’t too dark but it isn’t too light. It goes on so smoothly that it’s hard for me to believe it’s a matte.

7) Coffee is another favorite. This has a light shimmer to it and is one of those dark browns that I’m drawn to time and again.

8) Sable, another matte, is just short of being black. It’s like they took black and then added in some brown to soften it. While it looks intense in the palette, it’s really an easy to wear shade.

We’ve been doing Makeup Wars posts for several years now. It’s not always easy for the group to come up with new themes that haven’t been done but I believe we’ve done it this time. I don’t remember writing specifically about lipsticks that you can find at drugstores before so we have something new for you. To be honest I rarely buy lipstick at the drugstore and it’s mainly because they don’t have testers. I like seeing the lipsticks I buy and that’s because it’s not always possible at the drugstore. On to the majority of what I do have ….

BURT’S BEES LIPSTICKS * are the ones I was most excited to try after seeing them on other blogs. They don’t disappoint. The packaging of these belies the $9 price. With 14 shades to choose from you won’t have trouble picking favorites. Burt’s Bees lipsticks are creamy and hydrating. Just like the lip balms they are so famous for, these are loaded with great ingredients. They are made with 100% naturally moisturizing ingredients like moringa and raspberry seed oils to keep the moisture in. While they give you color they are also hydrating and conditioning your lips. I don’t think you can go wrong with these.

Burt’s Bees Lipsticks Nile Nude, Tulip Tide, Blush Basin

Burt’s Bees Lipsticks Blush Basin, Tulip Tide, Nile Nude

When I first open them I notice a fragrance but that’s the last time I notice it. It dissipates instantly.I have 3 shades (Blush Basin, Nile Nude, and Tulip Tide) and am eyeing Iced Iris now that I know how great these are. Blush Basin is a warm mauve, Tulip Tide is a beautiful pink, and Nile Nude is a warm nude and doesn’t have the orange that my picture depicts. These are available at Ulta and Ulta.com and drugstore.com.

Covergirl Coloricious oh sugar!

COVERGIRL COLORICIOUS OH SUGAR BALM! * is the newest lip product from Covergirl. These are vitamin enriched tinted lip balms in pretty pastel packaging. The outer packaging doesn’t necessarily give you a hint as to what’s inside. Be sure you check the bottom of the tube for a truer shade.

Covergirl Coloricious oh sugar!

I’m loving these since they give just a hint of color yet are loaded with balmy richness. There is no fragrance but when I lick my lips I notice a slight sweetness to them. If you are looking for deep pigment these may not be for you, but they are perfect for me since I like a sheer lip that is moisturizing.

Covergirl oh sugar! in Candy Bonbon and Taffy Tire

I have Candy Bonbon (aka Candy) which is a light rosy pink on my lips and Taffy Tire, a ‘your lips but better’ shade on me. These are normally $8.99 but are on sale at drugstore.com at the moment.

Milani Dulce Caramelo

MILANI COLOR STATEMENT LIPSTICK has become a bloggers delight. If you are a matte lipstick lover then these are for you. How many lipsticks have 45 shades to choose from, in a variety of finishes, and only cost approximately $5.50? After all the hype I had to try one and chose Dulce Caramelo which is a warm nude that’s not too dark (in spite of my swatch).

Milani Dulce Caramelo

Milani’s Color Statement Lipsticks are highly pigmented and contain Vitamins A, C, & E to moisturize and nourish lips. Dolce Caramelo is a cream finish that’s slightly shiny. My only problem with it is that it’s fragranced so I’m not sure I want to continue buying these, although a fabulous pink just might change my mind.

Revlon Ultra HD Lipstick in Gladiolus

REVLON ULTRA HD LIPSTICK in Gladiolus a real departure for me. It’s red and I really don’t wear red lipstick. But when a friend offered it to me, I took it to test it out. Have I worn it out of the house? Of course not but someday I might get brave enough.

Revlon Ultra HD Lipstick in Gladiolus

The color is absolutely stunning. It’s the shade of red nail polish I love so much with its pinky undertone. I’m experimenting with it though to see if I’ll find a way to make it work for me. This comes in 20 shades and it’s opaque in one coat. It’s not sticky but it does have a fragrance. Right now Revlon is BOGO 1/2 at Ulta.

Pixi Shea Butter Lip Balm in Natural Rose

As usual I neglected to put in some of my favorites from PIXI like their lip crayons, Lip Lift Ice (clear plumping gloss), and Shea Butter Lip Balms so forgive me!!
